Eddie Murphy is officially a part of Bachelor Nation!

The comedy legend, 63, revealed during a wide-ranging discussion on The New York TimesThe Interview podcast that he watched "all of" The Golden Bachelor when it aired last fall.

"Hey, they broke up, too. You know they broke up," Murphy said of the show's resulting couple Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist, who publicly announced that they were divorcing in April following their televised wedding ceremony in January.

"What kind of s--- is that? Three months later. I watched that s---, I was like, 'This is so nice, they found love in the second part of they life. This is a nice show. Bravo!' Then I find motherf----- broke up three months later. The same old s---."

Murphy also detailed a few of his other favorite shows while chatting with the Times, initially joking that he was "ashamed to say" what TV programs he watches today.

"It's not hip stuff," he said. "I'm not ashamed to say it. I watch every night, at 6 o'clock, right at dinner, I watch Steve Harvey and Family Feud. And on Tuesdays, I watch the Masked Singer."

"My wife and I, we watch all those shows, the singing competitions and that kind of stuff," he added of his fiancée Paige Butcher, though he has not revealed publicly if the couple are now married.

Murphy continued, "I be like, 'Nah, I ain't supposed to be watching no s--- like this. Then you say, 'I wonder who that turtle is?' That s--- pull you in, you be wondering who it is."

Representatives for the actor did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment on Murphy's marital status.

Elsewhere in the conversation, the Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F star spoke about a joke made on Saturday Night Live nearly three decades ago that upset him. Speaking with David Marchese, Murphy recalled what he called a "racist" joke that David Spade made about him during a December 1995 “Hollywood Minute” sketch.

At the time, Spade referred to Murphy as a "falling star" following the release of Murphy's film Vampire in Brooklyn, which Murphy now says "hurt my feelings." A rep for Spade did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment on Saturday, June 29.

"This is Saturday Night Live. I’m the biggest thing that ever came off that show. The show would have been off the air if I didn’t go back on the show, and now you got somebody from the cast making a crack about my career? And I know that he can’t just say that," Murphy continued.

"A joke has to go through these channels. So the producers thought it was okay to say that," he added. "And all the people that have been on that show, you’ve never heard nobody make no joke about anybody’s career. Most people that get off that show, they don’t go on and have these amazing careers. It was personal."

Murphy added that he's now "cool with" Spade, Lorne Michaels and Saturday Night Live.
